I opened all the ports that seemed to be listening n the master. I also ran the setup again without disabling the connection check to see what else needed fixing. It seems after much investigation and log dredging it seems my admin password had expired. I wasn't aware that was possible. I reset the password and it seemed to get further. This for some reason not mentioned in the documentation the replica is trying to ssh into the master as admin. I managed to fix that by changing my setup and ssh config files.
Then it actually managed to start the setup process. But again it fails at exactly the same point mentioned in my initial email. After some further digging with reference to the log output below it seems I have run into a bug that seems to have been fixed. https://fedorahosted.org/freeipa/ticket/3213 As I mentioned I am running current Fedora 18 so freeipa is 3.1.5-1.fc18 is that fixed in my version? It also seems the dogatg and IPA directories will be or have been merged? Which version did this happen in and will it get applied to my server? Can anyone suggest how I go about fixing this issue? I wanted to create a replica so I could upgrade to fedora 19 and not have to take my single instance of FreeIPA offline while that was happening. Will I need to upgrade to Fedora 19 to fix my issue? For reference this is the point of failure in the /var/log/ipareplica-install.log file 2013-07-18T01:06:16Z DEBUG Starting external process 2013-07-18T01:06:16Z DEBUG args=/usr/sbin/pkispawn -s CA -f /tmp/tmpFKBxMW 2013-07-18T01:08:16Z DEBUG Process finished, return code=1 2013-07-18T01:08:16Z DEBUG stdout=Loading deployment configuration from /tmp/tmpFKBxMW.
